Installers for the ClueFinders series of educational children's games, tested on Windows 10 and with no discs or disc images necessary. Installers for each game are linked under "Windows Executable."
Includes the following games:
- 3rd Grade Adventures: Mystery of Mathra
- 4th Grade Adventures: Puzzle of the Pyramid
- 5th Grade Adventures: Secret of the Living Volcano
- 6th Grade Adventures: Empire of the Plant People
- Math (v1.0)
- Math Adventures: Mystery of the Himalayas (v2.0) – see this explanation of the differences between versions
- Reading Adventures: Mystery of the Missing Amulet
- Search & Solve Adventures: The Phantom Amusement Park
- The Incredible Toy Store Adventure!
- Mystery Mansion Arcade
The Real World Adventure Kit is not included as I can't get it to run without a disc mounted.
All games run directly on the computer, except for 3rd Grade, which runs in DOSBox with Windows 3.1. A later reissue did add support for modern Windows systems, but again, I can't get it to run without mounting the disc image.
3rd Grade and Math 1.0 are also available for Mac OS X 10.6–10.14.

Subject: Saving Issue?
Subject: Saving Issue?
I love that I can play these again, I found a ROM of 5th grade a long time ago, but it always crashed when I tried to go underwater, this doesn't crash, but for some reason It's not saving my progress. Do I have to do something specific, or is there something wrong with my PC? I didn't see anyone else mentioning this problem, so it might just be me(I'm loading the games via shortcuts, but that shouldn't mess with anything, right? I also downloaded them via the individual msi files).
Also, is it possible to play these windowed? As you could guess from my username, I'd like to stream these someday, and fullscreen play kinda gets in the way of that.

I am having the same issues as Rose_Jim. When I try to install, the game, the installer opens but never progresses. What do I do to fix this??? UPDATE I also eventually got it running!

Hello,
I've been looking to play this game for the longest time again as this was my fav childhood game but haven't had any success finding it :(. I downloaded the 5th version but everytime I try to run the game it shows a black screen for a sec and the game closes without opening. Could someone please help me fix this issue? You'd be a life saver!!
UPDATE: I downloaded some software and it was able to help me play these games! THANK YOU SO MUCH

The installers will stop responding and never recover right after I pick the location to install them to and I tried a few different drives and locations.

I recently played the 5th Grade and the 6th Grade Adventures on my temporary computer (which is my mother's laptop) and it did perfectly fine. I hope you could figure out how to play Who Wants to be a Millionaire games (1st Edition, 2nd Edition, 3rd Edition, Kids' Edition, and Sports Edition) on Windows 10 without relying on CD-ROMs and release it as a collection, the same way you did to the ClueFinders and Carmen Sandiego.

Thank you so much for loading these! I grabbed the 10 windows executable and had 0 issues. I choose to download each file one at a time to shorten the download time and customize install but I had no issues at all! DONT LOOK ANY FARTHER, this is the links/user you need :) hopefully my fifth grader enjoys the games just as much as I did. THANK YOU!!!!

I loved these games as a kid and I love them still now, but I wanted to ask, is there any way to set the non-DOSBOX games into a forced 4:3 aspect ratio without turning off fullscreen entirely?

Subject: The best copy out there!!
You do not know how long I've been looking for these games! I used to play these games religiously growing up and every copy I would comes across either didn't work on my PC or wasn't the right one (UK version) which I wanted the US one. These games worked perfectly on my PC without having to mess around with any settings! THANK-YOU so much!!

If you can rip the disc contents, and can mount it for play, I'd be interested in those being added. If it's an issue of instructions, I am willing to help write some or find helpful links. Daemon Tools lite or similar mounting software has been effective in getting disc images mounted, that Windows can't.
